We challenge you

Are you plugged in on the national political scene? Think you know the answers to clues like “Departed Trump staffer” or “First words spoken by a Robert Mueller grand jury witness”?

Click here to test your knowledge of Washington goings-on and a lot of other areas in amExpress’ first crossword puzzle. It’s called “Here today . . . ” and it’s the first in what we hope will be a semiregular feature.

Send your completed grid to mark.chiusano@amny.com and we’ll include the names of winners in a future amExpress.

Sharpen your pencils!
